AL-USRCRN Station Information

Documentation of United States Alabama Regional Climate Reference Network (AL-USRCRN) installations in 2006. Installations documented are for AL-USRCRN pilot project stations in Alabama. These stations were designed to provide the same level of climate science quality measurements as the national-scale U.S. Climate Reference Network (USCRN), but are spaced more closely, and focus solely on temperature and precipitation. Alabama USRCRN stations are deployed at a 130 km spatial resolution to provide for the detection of regional climate change signals. The primary documents are instrument calibration sheets and installation checklists.
